Amongst the Reeds by Peter Fennell

The beautiful translucency of watercolour will be on display and for sale at this year’s Central Coast Watercolour Society’s Summertime exhibition.

The exhibition’s official opening will be on Thursday, September 21 at 6pm, followed by light refreshments.

Showcasing the talent of Central Coast Watercolour Society members, the exhibition will be held at the Community Gallery at Gosford Regional Gallery.

The raffle prize is a beautiful painting, Amongst the Reeds, by the later Peter Fennell, an internationally renowned artist whose works are both highly popular and sought after.

He was an exhibiting member of the Royal Art Society and a member and patron of the Central Coast Watercolour Society.

The exhibition will be open from September 20-October 2 from 9.30am-4pm daily.

Free watercolour sessions, Try Your Hand, will be held on September 23 and 24 from 1-4pm in studio 2.

Central Coast Watercolour Society (CCWS) is a voluntary membership organisation which aims to encourage and promote watercolour painting and related media, together with its appreciation and study.

It brings together established and new artists in a mutually supportive and non-competitive way through monthly members meetings which offer opportunities for demonstrations, talks, information sharing and socialising as well as access to a comprehensive library and well stocked art supply shop.

Workshops and classes aim to both encourage new members and offer existing more experienced members a chance to learn new techniques from tutors who are recognised experts in particular facets of watercolour.

CCWS has regular public exhibitions to showcase members’ artistic talent and provide opportunities for sale of high-quality watercolour artwork.
